Dispatch: Gun stolen from a car; Another check scam is caught by bank employees

Here's what happened around Campbell County yesterday. All calls took place
between 6 a.m February 24th and 6 a.m. February 25th. All persons cited or
arrested are presumed innocent until convicted in a court of law.
*Gillette Police Department*
*Corey Makeshine, 28, GIllette*, was arrested Wednesday afternoon at adult
probation, for refusing to allow probation officers to search his vehicle
as was part of his probation. A K9 searched the car and found what is
suspected to be marijuana in the center console.
*Tobacco Violations *9:30 a.m. at Sage Valley Junior High, a 12 year old
boy was found with chewing tobacco in his coat pocket. His early age
intervention officer and his mother were contacted.
Three hours later at South Campus, a 16 year old was caught with chewing
tobacco and was cited.
*Drove Through* Wednesday about lunch time, a 54 year old woman was waiting
in the drive thru of Taco Johns in her Ford F-150, when her foot slipped
off the brake and rolled forward in to another car in front of her.
*Theft *Wednesday afternoon, a 22 year old woman reported that someone in
Cheyenne used her driver's license to commit a theft. She was advised by
Cheyenne police to contact GPD about her purse being stolen in November
from the Wal-Mart parking lot.
*Assault* Wednesday afternoon at Twin Spruce Junior High, two 14 year old
boys were fighting during class. One of the boys had injuries that were
treated by the school nurse. Their parents were notified.
*Hit and Run* Wednesday afternoon at the Best Western Tower West Lodge, a
Ford F-350 was hit by unknown car while parked in the hotel parking lot.
Damage to the truck's grill guard is estimated at $500.
*Fraud* Around 2:30 p.m. a CAMPCO employee reported that the credit union
received three fraudulent checks from a 56 year old woman. The woman had
received the checks in a letter that told her she needed to deposit them
and send a portion back to a certain address. All checks were in excess of
$1000. Luckily the credit union employee recognized this as a scam and
called police. No money was lost.
*Criminal Entry* Around 3:30 p.m. on Green Avenue, a 31 year old woman and
a 29 year old man reported that various items had been moved around in
their apartment, but nothing appeared to be missing. There also didn't
appear to be any damage to the residence.
*Domestic Violence* At around 5 p.m. on Wednesday a 32 year old woman
reported that her ex-husband knocked on the door of her residence on Kiowa
Avenue, and forced his way in to the home when she answered. He allegedly
struck her in the eye. When she pushed him out of the house, he reportedly
kicked a window out of the screen door, throwing glass on to her, and
causing scratches to her face. He fled when she told him she was calling
police. Officers are still trying to locate the ex-husband.
*Destruction of Property* Late Wednesday afternoon on Pathfinder Circle a
27 year old woman reported that a man drove over her fence while he was
moving his trailer. This was allegedly part of an ongoing problem between
the two. The woman requested a trespass notice against the man.
*Burglary* Wednesday night at Fox Park a 33 year old man reported that
someone had broken in to his home during the day while he was at work. One
of his family members had texted him a photo of his door open with a
screwdriver in the door.
Thursday morning on Harder Drive, a 23 year old woman reported that her
home had been broken in to. When she'd returned home from work, she found
her house in disarray, and several items were taken, including a firearm
and some jewelry. The estimated value of the stolen items is $1500.
*Suspicious Activity* 2 a.m. Thursday morning on Commerce Drive a woman was
found running down the street. She was upset, telling officers that she had
been drugged, and indicated an occupied pickup in the area as the problem.
A 39 year old and a 29 year old were in the truck, and the men claimed to
be there to pick up the woman, but when they tried to help her she "freaked
out." The woman was taken to the ER, and police are still investigating.
*Campbell County Sheriff's Office*
*Ricky Cole, 28, Gillette*, arrested for a bond revocation.
*Richard Martinez, 37, Cheyenne*, was arrested for DUI when he failed to
stop at a stop sign.
*Anissa Pierce, 22, Gillette*, arrested on a bond revocation.
*Justin Smith, 22, Gillette*, taken to detention from the court house as a
sentenced prisoner.
*Theft* A 61 year old woman visited the Sheriff's Office early Wednesday
morning to report that she thinks her grandson took $43 from the "secret"
spot where she hides her money.
*Burglary* Wednesday afternoon a man reported that he heard someone closing
the door of his car around 4 p.m. He checked his vehicle, which was parked
outside his home on Crane Street, and found that his .380 Smith and Wesson
had been stolen.
